Dude, one of these day we have to meet here:

The only catch is you have to reserve, and unless you come after 8pm you only get 2 hours to eat (or so I heard). They got stuff like 3lb burgers and 4L Jack and cokes. man I need to bring a DD.
Welcome Patrick,
Like Kron said, we post any and all meets here.

So I'm at Mazda Becker in Bruchhof today getting some things checked out and I notice a red RX 8 off in the parking lot. After talking with the service guys for a few minutes I decide to walk over and check it out, being as how I like rotarys and all. As I get closer to the car I realize that the tribal graffic on the side looks really familiar. LOL, As I walk up to it I realize that I'm looking at Fabians car, sittin' pretty with a 26K+ sticker on it. I ask the guy I was talking to about it and he says it's the dealerships car. So I'm guessing that either Fabians dad works there or he owns the friggin' place. Is Fabians dad the rotary specialist that I talked to today perhaps? Either way I'm stoked to know that I have some Mazda support that actually knows what the hell a rotary is. And btw, Mazda Becker is about 15-20 minutes away from my house. The Mazda dealer in Landstuhl actually looked a little frightened when I opened the hood to show him the problem. And then he told me that they just don't know how to work on rotarys. In fact, he said that they didn't even have a shop manual for the RX 7, LOL! So anyway, I haven't had Mazda Becker actually do anything to my car yet other than look at it, but they seemed really friendly and knowledgable. And the price he quoted me was friggin awsome. The service guy also told me that he could get me any and all parts I needed in the future with no problem. I'm going back on the 13th to have them fix some things and I'll let you guys know how they did in case you ever need to use them.

So the question is, how are we going to fix this problem?

My goal is 10psi one of these days...

power f´c is nice but
power fc is expensiver than a microtech or haltech...
you need other igniter coils...
fd cable tree ( not realy cheap and rare)
and some other things...
a microtech or haltech can you install in many kinds of cars.
so you have only to change car not your ecu.
and save money

microtech is nice but my O2 just burnt up yesterday. I was thinking about getting a wide band sensor for my RTec as it stands. AEM makes one that comes with the Sensor, Meter, and sender for $275

if its same what i mean it have no output with narrowband o2 signal for your ecu.
the innovate and the ngk widebands have the narrowband output.

See this sticky for those new to RTek2.0

The sensors we use are not based of a 0-5v output.
how strange....
It seems like all my sensors are going out now. My temp sensor started throwing a code yesterday :-(. Kron needs to haul the coup to its resting place so I can Start stripping
